  • This song is the best recording made in 1974.

  • wow..I didn't know D'angelo got this Roberta Flack. I'm just hearing this original version for the first time in 2010 and I'm speechless! I can just imagine how it was perceived back when it first dropped.

  • I'm only 27, and I love this track, one of my favorites.

  • this music so sultry and laid back....good music to listen to.

  • Amen to that. 

  • @murphslaw123 Hallelujiah , brother!! Speak the truth, man!!

  • @yourbrotherAli1 I'm a girl :)

  • Vocally arranged by Mr. Harry Whitaker (RIP)

  • @WeeraiMedia he has my respect. for sure

  • Billboard's #35 song of '74. Roberta scored a triple play. Hit #1 soul, pop, and AC. God bless! How's it possible to have 10 dislikes?

  • my favorite slow jam of all time.

  • "Feel Like Making Love "

    Ok fine, gimme a call. I'm not doing anything right now. But I have a thing at 6pm, so we'll have to rap it up quickly.

  • Oh mi Dios..qué hermosa canción...

  • nice percussion in the back ground. Nice guitar too.

  • Im in my hammock in the back yard ,my eyes close, my girlfriend laying next to me listening to this. mmmmmmmm.

  • Very relaxing feelgood spending time wit yo girl song.

  • Heard this several times on The Wave,Smooth Jazz radio station.Did not realize it was Roberta Flack,until I checked on Google by typing the lyrics.Nice song.

  • This is the best version for me.

  • It cant be done better

  • This song!!! I remember back in '74, I believe, this beautiful white chick ( she looked like the young Mary Hart) trained me to take over a job she was vacating because she was moving away. At some point ,she let me know that she would like to have sex with me. I took her up on it. The first time we made love at her place this song was playing on a radio in her bedroom!! I thought it was ironic! She eventually moved away.No one ever knew about us! This song brings back great memories!!!!!!!

  • A lovely song sung by Roberta Flack.

  • If anybody is interested John Legend sings this in his live version of PDA. It's more uptempo. Just search "John legend live in Philadelphia PDA". He incorpartes this song with it.

  • I love it!

  • If memory serves, Eric Gale is on guitar, Bob James on keys, Ralph McDonald on percussions, Gary King is on bass. They re-did it on Bob James - One

  • @chetsisk You are correct! The drummer on the track is Idris Muhummad.

  • Simple. Beautiful. Timeless. Classic.

  • @bronxbabi100 Reminds me of those nice days living in Panama and listening to this song.

  • ARE COUPLES ROMANTIC like this anymore???

  • @nealadams70 Better question: Is MUSIC romantic like this anymore???

  • @estyle40 WELL that i can already answer ....NO

  • @nealadams70 Agreed, man!!! LOL

  • @estyle40 maybe one day when they ' ve learned..romantic music will return

  • @nealadams70 Impressive!!! You sound like a bit of a poet yourself. Nice!!!

  • @estyle40 haha

  • bellissima,dolcissima

  • A beautiful song. A real 70's gem. I heard this song the other day on the radio, I hadn't heard it in years. I had forgotten how damn good it is!

  • . . . Dammit. I think I should officially "dub" this as me and Jung Ji-Hoon's song, lol. Don't ask. ---->>>>

  • We've stopped making love. Use to be able to play a different song to all your orgasms.

  • another beautiful message. meaning full. send it to the one you love. will bring a smile to the one you love.

  • Hit #1 soul, and #1 pop. BeigeFunk, why so formal? Don't you ever say, 'gonna'? It's perfectly acceptable. No need to be so prim and proper. God bless!

  • Great song, Soror Roberta.

  • The music of the 70s;truly UNTOUCHABLE!!!

  • 200,000 views - congrats

    Come Winter by Drake is the shit tho. One of modern hip hop's best songs.

  • @2009Denisem

    Why was this flagged???

  • @RapIsDeadly I don't know???

  • Truly amazing woman. We need to bring back the 60's ans 70's.

  • @dmgcat I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT

  • This is a perfect Valentines Day song! :)

  • @BeigeFunk YES IT IS

  • Lady gaga is going to make a remake of this song.......just kidding!!! :D

  • this is REAL soul music the 70s just cannot be touched

  • @danw1374 IT'S CLASSIC SOUL MUSIC

  • Drake- Come Winter

  • Did Burt Bacharach write this song?

  • eugene mcdaniels wrote this song!

  • I love this version. It's too bad you don't hear it on the radio very often. I'm in mood for love, baby!!!

  • A time when we had REAL music!!!

  • I miss those times so much. When feelings were REAL, and we had REAL artists.

  • @mauriciobeltre so so I.

  • @mauriciobeltre I agree, Mauriciobeltre

  • @hardlines4 you never lied!!

  • Damn D'Angelo KNOWS what song he can pick to remake and knows exactly how to put the STANK on it.

    i like this original version as well...very breezy like a lot of yall saying.

    SIDE NOTE: Did D'Angelo add the horn parts by his own doing!?? i thought it was sampled from the original, but after listening to this, it isn't! Them horns is my favorite part. Goddamn D is the TRUTH.

    -------------

    and reflect.

  • i second that, D'Angelo is a talent that is truly slept on... im just waiting for him to come back!

  • AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I feel like making love.....

  • mis gustos son mios y mi pasion tambien es mia en mis buenas estare con quien estubo en mis malas,, la ignorancia es el mejor factor para la determinacion de un error!!!

  • yes i feel like making love boo!! hurry up and come garcia xx

  • Oh! Great Lovesong!!!

  • LOVE this song, have always loved it,

    GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • It must be her best song ( from among many )

  • Charles Hamilton- DSW

  • xikoemo i don't know what your smoking if you think lumidee version is better than roberta flack

  • agreed this version is the best

  • You are actually wrong. It's a scientific fact that the Roberta Flack version is indeed the best, and the Lumidee version is complete and utter shit.

  • @ryanbelknap

    i disagree. bad company's version is much better

  • @joseneid Bad Company's "Feel Like Making Love" is a completely different song from this one. The only thing they share in common is the title.

  • @ryanbelknap You win.

  • @ryanbelknap I agree %100!

  • @ryanbelknap I SOOOOOO AGREE WITH YOU!

  • @ryanbelknap Why is Lumidee's utter shit? Roberta's the most successful and all but that does not mean Lumidee's bad

  • @ryanbelknap That's Funny!!!

  • @ryanbelknap Science wins again.

  • This song makes me want to put on my leopard print lingerie and wait for my husband to get home from work. (this song cranking in the background of course) little bit of extra bass ain't ever hurt no-body! I's needs the bass to help muffle out my screams of passion.

  • Comment removed

  • Classics track!

  • Sweet, sexy, love it.

  • Excellent. Worlds better than the similarly titled Bad Company song.

  • ...mom and dad's Deuce anda Quarter...

  • :D :D :D (My comment was too short!!!)

  • Sweet Tune.....

    Makes me smile...8-)

  • I love this, this reminds me of my mom.

    In the spring of the 70's in our home of love

  • does anyone know who wrote the lyrics?

  • eugene mcdaniels.

    He's a little avant-garde for most tastes tho......

  • gotta agree wid ya there ... there's something about this woman's voice ... even when she's talking, it's effortlessly sultry... I remember singing this to a girlfriend over the phone ... well, the song was prophetic, that's all I can say!
